Chapter 695: Chapter 695: Mother Xia Gets Hit
Qian Qianqian’s words had managed to turn Xia Chuyi’s mood around slightly—having such a friend ward her heart.
“Thank you, Qianqian,” Xia Chuyi sincerely said to Qian Qianqian, without any pretense of refusal.
There was no way around it, if her mother was indeed in trouble, and they were all in Capital City, even if they rushed back imdiately, the ti it took to travel was ti during which they would need soone’s help.
“If need be, I might have to trouble Uncle Qian and Aunt Qian,” Xia Chuyi seriously said.
Hearing this, Qian Qianqian imdiately said, “Oh, unless you’re still being polite with !”
Uncle Xia gave a slight smile.
Thanks were still necessary, after all, human relations were all about give and take.
After speaking with Qian Qianqian, Xia Chuyi then made a call to Chang Luhui.
“Director Chang, I need to ask you for a favor,” Xia Chuyi said straightforwardly once the call connected.
“What is it?” Chang Luhui, on receiving the call, was slightly surprised.
There was no helping it; although Xia Chu had asked for his assistance before, she rarely used such a grave tone.
“It’s about my mother…” Xia Chuyi proceeded to explain the situation to Chang Luhui.
Then, Xia Chu said very earnestly, “So, I would like to ask Director Chang to help find out exactly what’s going on.”
“Thank you for your trouble, Director Chang.”
Finally, Xia Chuyi earnestly expressed her gratitude.
Listening to the basic situation over the phone, Chang Luhui didn’t make any excuses and heartily said, “Don’t worry, leave it to .”
After hanging up the phone, since there was not much going on at the office, Chang Luhui summoned his subordinates and together they went to investigate the situation at Ling County Hospital.
Ling County Hospital, the surgery ward.
Xia Lan was gently and softly asking the middle-aged woman in the hospital bed—Mother Xia, “Second Aunt, feeling much better after taking the dicine?”
Mother Xia’s face was full of scratches, and the corner of her eye was sowhat bruised.
Clearly, Mother Xia had been beaten.
“I feel much better,” Mother Xia said, with gratitude, holding Xia Lan’s hand despite her face being covered in wounds, “Thank you so much for today, Er Lan!”
Hearing this, Xia Lan smiled gently and said, “What’s there to thank for? Second Aunt, it’s what I should do.”
Hearing her say this, Mother Xia was even more moved, patting Xia Lan’s hand and saying, “Good child, good child… if what we did today works, I will definitely thank you properly, thank you so much!”
Mother Xia’s words were heartfelt and sincere.
As for what to be thankful for?
Xia Lan’s eyes flashed with a hint of pride as she said, “Second Aunt, trust , it will definitely work.”
“You’ve always lived in Heshan Village and aren’t familiar with Xia Chuyi’s situation,” Xia Lan said softly to Mother Xia, “Chuyi, you see, is quite close to Director Chang Luhui of Ling County Public Security Bureau.”
“If you had told Chuyi earlier about how your elder aunt always bullies you in He Mountain…”
“Chuyi could tell Director Chang, and then Director Chang could just send a junior officer to He Mountain Village to give the elder aunt a warning.”
“Then she naturally wouldn’t dare to bully you anymore…”
As this topic ca up, Mother Xia’s long-standing grievance returned, and her eyes reddened as she began to tear up.
“Actually, my elder sister-in-law hasn’t really bullied ,” Mother Xia said, “Usually, she just cos to my ho now and then, ridicules with her words, and occasionally makes things difficult for .”
